Obi's roadiedouchebag / HHSRB project - Condor Super Acciaio

next stem... matching handlebar/stem/seatpost.

Fizik seems like the only option that do a 400mm post.... 350mm with 90mm min insertion is 20mm too short.

ritchey with neo classic bars or zipp

Fizik stuff is very nice. The stems can looks a little chunky but the seatpost is the best designed out there. Nothing else is as easy to set layback and saddle angle

excited to see this built up!

Specs and weight on the fizik seatpost? Youve chosen parts very well with this bike, Force cranks are some of the best looking cranks around IMO

thanks dude... it's the Fizik R1 27.2mm. The scales say 268g including the little Fizik rubber thingy that I didn't bother to remove...It's isn't weightweenie, but it is the 400mm long. I need 270mm of exposed seatpost, so can't use a 330mm due to them having 90mm minimum insertion.

This takes too long! I wanna see the outcome 😇

I know :(

Garmin mount, handlebars, tyres, derailleur clamp all on the way

Went with 25c Schwalbe Pro Ones in the end... excited to try them...

Brooks C13 Carbon would look lovely on this. Or perhaps one of Fabrics offerings for a low profile look? As for bartape, haven't gone wrong with Prologo personally.

Didnt you already buy lizard skins for this?

yes, although I accept the points upthread about it wearing fast and may use it on something else...

on a shit note...wheels might have to go back to LMNH... inexplicable rattle in the front when tapped and the rear valve seems faulty and won't hold air. < grumpycat.jpg >
